Materials and methods
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- A study is being performed to gather data on the presence of disinfection by-products (DBPs) in drinking water and the impact of treatment processes on DBP formation and control. The effects of DHP production on finished water quality are being determined at 35 drinking water treatment facilities. These facilities were selected to provide a broad range of source water qualities and treatment processes that are representative of utilities nationwide. Drinking water samples (n = 140) from 35 US waterworks were taken quarterly in 1988 and in winter 1989. Sampling was performed after disinfection (chlorination, ozonisation).
